Merry Xmas from the Swing!
‘it is with total disgust that we let Jack our legendary Graphics guru leave the Swing family
So what better way to make him feel bad, than egging his face! Jack has been with us since the dawn of time, seen us through our baby years through to now. He’s a bit of a bloody legend and we know we’ll be seeing him again soon.
All the best Jack and a heap of Big Swing Love (and Eggs) at you!

KIA KAHA!!!! Once again a big thumbs up and thanks from the Japanese Red Cross. All smiles in Japan as the support and generosity from all you guys gets them one step closer to a quick recovery from the Tsunami affected area. Good luck to all our Japanese friends!
It is a sad, however entertaining day with our lovely sales chic/dommette/ shopette/social media guru leaving us.
As you can see from the photos leaving Canyon Swing is not something that you want to take lightly.
Kail and Jack are the first ever to pogo off Shotover Canyon Swing.
The boys very kindly donated the pogo stick to the Swing so others can experience yet another way to jump off a 109m cliff.
Please note that Speedo’s are not required. “Dennis from accounts” thought that Kail would look good in them so said it was a prerequisite if he was to use his pogo stick.

Woohoo! We raised $10,594.80 for Mt Pleasant Primary School with our Shake the Quake Fundraiser. Thank you so much for all your support all you Swingers out there, we couldn’t have done it without you. We will keep you posted on what they decide to use the funds for. Thanks again, you are all superstars!
After a momumental 5 year stint of making the Swing’s IT World more brilliant than a brilliant thing, Oi (aka Mr Eoin Kelly, it’s an Oirish thing!) has left the building. To punish him for leaving our world, we put him in a proper Swing-Irish uniform, restrained him in stocks and added enough ingredients to make him into a potato cake, check it out!
Here’s our GM and Ops Manager saying their fond farewells!
We will miss the Oily one very muchly, but still see him lots and wish him all the very best with his future IT adventures!
Wayne, a new swinging legend with 3 under his belt just this morning, looks more than a little bit like Ricky Gervais we reckon – check it out!
